Kayden was another linebacker on this list also out of Sioux Falls Christian, that I felt the live reps told the story with his live eval I got from Saturday at our Prep Redzone Dakotas.. Undersized, but surely played with a chip on his shoulder at 5’7 165 pounds that played with a consistent presence to the ball in the reps I got to watch. His mix of change of direction and persistent ability to attack the hip in the LB Indy drills I watched, elevated Kayden’s stock in my eyes due to his football IQ that surely is still growing as a 2028 prospect for the Chargers. They surely have some depth that we saw at linebacker, which tells me their defense is surely one to watch in 11A looking ahead at the 2026 season.
